The Paris Pdpeis of S3n(lay last, which were itt this morning, have not arrived, Parliament, we understand, is to be prorogued on Tuesday next, and dissolved on Wednesday. The Assizes have been postponed for a fortnight, that the new Elections may not interfere with them. The wise and sound. friends of the Country will rejoice to hear that the ArTEN lirt.t. passed in the House of Lords last night, notwithstanding the silly and ridiculous opposition to it which 110 peen Inade by certain pseudo Patriots. Lord tlsturgE's Bill , to prevent - arrests fit libels before indictments were found, was properly thrown out, thepeace:aeuigood order of the Country requiring that blasphemous and 'seditious libels should be rampfly checked, and the authors brought to punishment. The ad caplandum speech of Sir FRANCIS BUR.. VETT, in the House of Commons, last night, is sufficiently enticed in our account of the Debate. The whole of its substance is knOwn to be in di rect opposition to the opinions which he has repeatedly avowed on the subject of Universal Suffrage and Annual Parliaments, of which he . was notwithstanding the advocate on this oc casion.. But he had offended the Rabble 14y hip languid support of their favourite' measures, and he wished to regain them on the eve of a General Election. The con- . tempt of the House, however, was apparent, a$ only himself and Colleague supported his motion. Mr. BROUGHAM took a decided Tart against the Baronet, and well he might, far Ire had a sufficient taste, of the nature anillemie.ncy of Universal :Suffrage and Annual Paritia•ments When 'he was driven from Palace-yard by the mass of Ragamuffin Reformers. It is well for. certain Politicidtrs that they are Hereditary Counsellors of the State, for if they were 11Ierabers of the House of 'Commons they would, - we believe, have little chance of having any op portunity, after a dissolution, of offering their Counsels in Parliament again. Io order to, main tain a character for hospitality, th‘ey would have this Country-harbour wretches who are obliged, by their bad principles, to abandon their own. The arguments that these profound Politicians draw from -former times have no application to the present, When industrious Manufacturers were persecuted oil, account of their, religions princi ples, and obliged to seek protection in this Coun try, they were received with kindness, they im proved the arts, and they acquired opulence, tvhich is now possessed by their descendants. But the Politicians who clamour against the ALIEN BILL censure Ministers for not opening the Country to men who are totally destitute of reli gious prirteiples, who laugh at morality, and whose only aim is to subvert all regular Govern ments, and spread confusion and misery over every State which they may be permitted to en ter. They abound in France, and every part of the Continent. The Netherlands, for want of an ALIE N Acr, were overpowered by miscreants, who diff use d their seditious doctrines quarters ; yet the aforesaid profound Politicians wish, or pretend to wish, that this Country should be freely opened to them. It is perfectly astonish ing Olaf Government should . , so long have over looked the (lime in the Scotch Law, which ren ders those who invest money in the Bank of Scotland naturalized Subjects in that part of the Kingdom,, and, by the Act of Union, of the Empire at large! ! If no rerro•active measure should be adopted on this head, the character and conduct of.all Foreigners who have invested money itsthe Bank of Scotland should also be jLade the subject of immediate enquiry, and if the stsult is not satisfactory, they. sllouid . he sent away. It is not a little disgraceful to the Opposition, high and low, that all suspi cious or bra - tided - characters, vtltether foreigners or natives, apply to them as their natural Pro tectors, and that the latter should be always'reedy to take Asp their cause, and to accuse Ministers of persecution, before they have heard any defence against. the artful and fallacious complaints of men, viThOse crimes' or whose dangerous principles have brOught thein into difficulty. We trust that this officious 'zeal to redress alleged grievances, Quixotlic 'eagerness to assist political 1?6- formetw, Whether foreign adventurers• or domestic Incendiaries, %ill not be forgotten by the pe►►ple at large when a dis Solution of Parliament takes place, and that they will not return any of those silly Politicians who, to preserve for the Country a vague reputation for hospitality,. would expose it to the inroads of hordes of flagitious foreigners, more desperate, more savage, more destructive but more artful, than the Goths and Vandals o former ages. COCRT OF KING'S BENCH. This mot 'ling Mr. Justice BAILEY, after ft speech of considerable interest, delivered the judgment of the Court upori Joseph Merceron, Esq. Trea surer of St. Mathew's, Bethnal-green, viz :—For his first offence, as Treasurer, in appropriating 925/.

CORN-EXCUANGE, JUNE 3.—Notwithstanding -the late large Arrivals we have experienced, there was a briskness in the sale of all kinds of Grain zthis morning ; and although we do not quote the ;prices higher, the sales made in Wheat, Oats, Barley, and Reaps, were on full as good terms as on Monday.—ln other articles there is no alteration. Yesterday her MAJESTY took an airing in, her small chaise behind the Palace in the Giudens. Last night the PRINCE REGENT bad ,a numerous dress party at, Carlton House. Yest.erthiy ,the Pnitics rode out on horseback in the Parks, Btc,. The Ducheis of GLotneviea and the - ,Pukes of CLARENCE, S6s.Ex., and CAMBRIDGE, visited her MAJESTY yesterday. . A Cabinet Council was held' lesterday tit the Foreign Office, at two o'clock, : which sat till about fotir. On Monday the Duke and Duchess of CAM- BRIDGE, previous to, their leaVing Canibridge: house to go to the Queen's Palace to be re-mar ried, allowed a number of persons, the friends of the Household, to stand its, the hall to see them pass. Cambridge-house was yesterday thronged with Nobility and Distinguished Characters leav ing their names of congratulation. The Prince and Princess of llEsss Homst , Ro will leave the Queen's Palace to-day, for the Pa vilion at Brighton, attended by General Sir H. CAMPBELL, BaronO'N4GHTEN, Lady CAMPBELL, and Lady ELIZABETIj MONTAGUE. After spend ing a few days at Brighton, the Illustrious Pair will proceed to Dover, and there embark for Calais. TH B DUCHESS OF WELLING TOL—The . follow ing interesting anecdote of this most amiable Lady may be depended, upon... Her Grace - has a seat in Belgrave Chapel, Grosvenor-place, where she regularly attends divine service. On Sunday last a. Charity Sermon having been preached, for which she had not prepared herself by bringing her pone, her. Grace, in passing the door, took a gold chain from her neck and put it into the plate. The chain has probably since been redeemed for much more than its worth. • Mr. JOHN FOSTER, jun. of Liverpool, was last week. unanimously elected a Fellow of the ANTI QUARIAN SOCIETY, of London. This Gentleman was doubtless recommended to this distinction, which, it is very difficult to obtain, by the im 7 portant discoveries which he made during his long residence in. Greece. His high literary character and knowledge of antiquity procured him a simi lar distinction in the ARCHEOLoCICAt. ACADEMY at nom, while be resided in that venerable City. - A riotous mob assembled on Monday and yes terday in front of a pork-butchers shop in Clare market, and could scarcely be rest - pained by a nu merous police from destroying the shop and its tenant. The cause of .this disturbance was an atrocious hand-bill, circulated .by one Catnach, printer, in which it was stated that the pork butcher cut up human bodies into. sausages ; Cat uach, at Bow -street, yesterday confessed that there was no foundation for the rumour, and that he published it merely in the way of his trade, as a retail and marvellous treat,to the vulgar. ~He was ordered to circulate a printed- contradiction. Two of the rioters were committed for Avant of bail, toot it does not : appear that, Catnach, was com mitted, though his libel cottainly tended to break the peace. .S 111 1) NEWS.

THE TURA fRES. DRURY-LANE.—The Honey Moon gave S6ope to the talents of ELLISTON last night at this Theatre, and he performed the part of the Duke iiranza with all his former success. Mrs. DA itso'N strongly supported him in Juliana ; and this vi gorous and interesting - Comedy went off with spirited effect. CoveiNT-GAEDEN.---Miss O'NEILL had the Tragedy of Douglas for her benefit last night, and she perfetrthed the part of Lady Randolph with great feeling. C. KEMBLE resumed the pact of fining Norval, and supported it with such judg ment, spit it, and effect, as made a powerful im pression on the audience. YOUNG'S Old Norval, and AI'CREADY'S Glenalcon, eminently contributed to the effect of the piece; nor should EGERTON he overlooked in his respectable support of Lord Randolph. ,We were sorky that the audience was not so numerous as might be expected from the merit and popularity of MiIS.O'isTEILL. GENERAL ELECTION. Earl GROSVENOR has stirred op a bost of oppo nents in the city of Chester, by what the people deem an attempt to monopolize the Representa tion of that City. When his intention to bring forward his son, Lord BBLGRAVE, as a Candidate, was announced, it was thought that he would withdraw his countenance from General GROSVE NOR, but now it appears that he wishes to procure the return of both. Hence the friends of Sir Jorror GREY EGERTON are more on the alert, and there' is little doubt of the worthy Baronet's suc cess. Liverpool is all in a bustle in preparing for the new Election ; and though there is no doubt that the. sitting Members will be returned, yet the town is threatened with an opposition front the Earl of SEFTON. His Lordship's patronage of HoN es blasphemous Parodies, and subscription for the Author, while he himself was in imminent danger of approaching death, cannot but.foreiblY recommend him to every friend of religion gnd ma- Alt. BENJAMIN SHAW, the Banker, is to be pro pond.tor the: City of London, by the independent interest. This Gentleman is not related to S i r JAMES SHAW.. . Mr. ,DOUGLAS KINNAIRD is mentioned as a Candidate for Westminster, and others are likely to start. This city ought to be rescued from all mnb-ascendancy. Why do not persons of weight and influence start for this city as heretofore ? On Monday, evening,. A. \V. ROBARTS, Esq. made his public entry into this town ; lie dined at the Bull Inn, IVrotham„ whither several of his friends repaired to join hint, and on arriving at Sumtnerfield Turnpike Gate, he was met by anu merous hotly of freemen on fdot, also on horse back and in carriages, together with. some hun dreds of the inhabitants, with escorted bins into the town; the procession passed through the various streets, accompanied by a band of music and co lours, with a boat mounted or•t a carriage, deco rated with blue streamers, and filled with water men. , Uu arriving at the Star Inn, he alighted, and from the balcony briefly addressed the Free men, stating him proud he,was to meet with so flattering a reception ; after which, Mr. E. Rus- SELL expressed his sentiments, and the populace then retired. Mr. Rpsaars commences his can vass this day.—Three. Candidates have already publicly annottneert their intention of offering themselves as Representatives for this County, viz. EDWARD KNATCHBULL, Bart. Sir Jontr COVRTNAY HONYWOOD, Bart.. and WILLIAM PHI LIP HONYWOOD ; Esq, it is also expected that Sir Wu:l.lAm GEARY will again come forward, in con sequence of which a warm contest is expected.— (41.1aidaone Journal, June 2) A Work of very,considerable interest, entitled " Narrative of a Residence at Algiers," has just appeared limier the superitrendance of Captain BLAQUIRRE, and dedicated, by permission, to the PRINCE REGENT, relative - to Algiers. It is the productiOn of Signor VAN ANT', a Scholar• of 'fuscany, who during the Revolution removed to England. On his return to his native country he had the misfortune to be captured by the Pirates and carried to Algiers. On making himself known to the Consols,howeYer, he was immediately li berated, receiving at the. same time. a pectilidi mark of distinction from the DEY. lie remained in the Regency a considerable time, anil applied himself,to the, investigation of the History, Go vernment, Manners, and Customs of this highly interesting part of Aft ica. From the well-known talents of the'Anthor, his persevering industry, and his opportunities for research,it might be expected that much new light would be thrown on this, Important subject, particularly when it is considered that no Work on Algiers has appeared for a very long period. In this expectation the' public will not be disappointed t, a, more impor tant or interesting volume has seldom been offer ed to their attention. ligtUitsi'-LANt TIILATRE.
